March Madness – Darcy, Wentworth, and Ferrars

I wrote a story for last year’s March Madness about Darcy and Wentworth meeting in an inn and talking about their lost loves. I decided to continue the story where it left off, with Edward Ferrars joining them. I have included the last part of the previous post here if you want to refresh your …

Longbourn: Dragon Entail Ch 6

Ok, so I’m als a sucker. You asked for chapters weekly…I guess I’ll do chapters weekly now. How about we check in with exactly what Darcy is up to as well. He better have a good reason for not coming to the rescue–right? (Don’t forget, comments really do inspire me to write faster…just saying…) Find other …

Ellie and Brandon Part I

For this edition of March Madness, as requested, I present to you a mashup of Elinor and Colonel Brandon. I suppose this is more of a variation than a mashup of two different JA works, but I had fun getting these two together, in a modern day setting. Enjoy Part 1! Ellie sat in the …

Conceit & Concealment Cover Reveal!

Once upon a time, disguise of every sort was his abhorrence. Now Darcy could barely recall a time when he had not worn a disguise.   ~~~ You know the story.

A Different Persuasion (Part 2)

For his part, Captain Wentworth rejoiced in …

March Madness – Mr. Darcy meets Capt. Wentworth by Jack Caldwell

Hello, everybody. Jack Caldwell here. As you may know, I’m working on ROSINGS PARK, my sequel to THE THREE COLONELS. Unfortunately, it’s been a slow process and I appreciate your patience. (It doesn’t help that I’m also editing my Persuasion sequel, PERSUADED TO SAIL, at the same time!) Anyhow, there’s an interlude in ROSINGS PARK …
